Only one chance in this lifetime…
Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him.
I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.
BREAKING NEWS
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2025 #NobelPrize in Physics to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis “for the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunnelling and energy quantisation in an electric circuit.”
"Ultimately our gov't knows best for us."
That last sentence made the whole post lose credibility because the government, in fact, DOES NOT know what's best for us.
Haba bro David @DavidHundeyin, I get the angle you're pushing from but it's an oversimplification that does a disservice to the whole debate. Doctors are not perfect, yes, but calling them glorified checklist readers is a reach. Many of the issues referenced like "systemic bias in medicine" were actually exposed by doctors and scientists within the system, not by outsiders. If anything, that proves there's still room for internal critique and reform in medicine, not that we should write the profession off entirely.
On GMOs, dumping the science angle is a mistake. Yes, corporate influence exists, but both gov't (WHO, etc) and other independent studies have shown that GMOs in the market are safe for consumption (even our Nigerian NAFDAC does label GM Foods). Now take the golden rice for instance; it was developed to fight vitamin A deficiency in developing countries.
Bro, saying Bill Gates has locked down all scientific research is just conspiracy bait lol. It weakens the legitimate criticism about corporate capture of food systems, yes. The better route is to push for open-access research, diverse funding sources, and regulations that protect local farmers. For me, it is not science vs economics here but using both to fight for food sovereignty and better public policy.
Ultimately, our gov't knows best for us.
Man Proposes, God Disposes!
It has been established that a technical glitch affected 157 centres out of the 887 centres in the 2025 UTME. This was basically responsible for the general low performance of the candidates scheduled to sit the examination in those centres.
If only 1M is raised, it won't pain those leeches.
However, 150M that they cannot owodaify is max pain for them. They'll seethe with anger.
That 150M is merely an ammunition in the fight against principalities plundering the national wealth and the owodaification of the country.
Many people will say "150M is too much."
No. It is not too much. The value of this narrative deserves 150M.
First, make no mistake. THIS IS A FIGHT against principalities plundering the national wealth.

Can't even commence a project beneficial to a community without settling random persons that come asking, "owoda."
You received a donation? "owoda"
The owodaification of the country is a horrible thing and something has to be done about it.
